Mark Wingfield shares how the Havening Technique can help us with with the difficult things in life - adversity, trauma, tragedy and threats.

Havening means to put a person in a 'safe haven'. Mark's background is in conflict and self defence and has seen how this new approach can help many people who've overcome so many issues.

The science behind Havening: Mark explains that Gamma waves are the predominant brain waves at the time of traumatisation. This high oscillation of calcium creates a number of consequences of various neurotransmitters. Simply put, receptors in the amygdala are connected and stay with us like 'glue' - it becomes a programmed in the brain with a response to any triggers that were there at the time of traumatisation.

When we touch certain areas of the body, we generate a delta (brain) wave. This is much slower than the Gamma waves the brain creates when in a state of traumatisation. These Delta waves send signals that help us feel safe, they are a self-soother. In turn this changes the chemical balance in out brain and helps remove the 'glue' that held the receptors in the trauma state.
